We started out in the fall of 2017 with a core group of committed enthusiastic players. The coach and the players worked hard to create a “team” (we lost some folks along the way) but added some strength at key positions as well!

When the Magic stepped onto the pitch- the League Championship was - ‘on the line.’ Prior to “Game day” - only 1 point separated the 2nd place Magic from the 1st place Rangers “White and,......the Magic pulled out an impressive victory.

Forward, Dani Perri scored the go-ahead-winning goal in the 87th minute of an intense 90 minutes of play - off a double assist from Miki Abe to Laura Marmelejo to Perri! Perri composed herself in front of the goal and hit the ball to the upper right corner of the net.

The Magic team is excited to to be “back on top” again - after also winning the League Championship in 2013 and 2015. (Magic placed second in the League in 2014 and 2016.)

Long time coach, Nino DePasquali, strategized with the Magic players and they trained to play “match-up” against the Rangers team. It proved to be a winning strategy. “This was our time and our game, said DePasquali who knew that Magic needed a win and not a tie.
